- Shock: Transfer the broccoli directly from the boiling water to a bowl of ice water, using a slotted spoon. Let it sit for 5 minutes, then drain well. Transfer it to a paper towel lined bowl to fully dry.
- Toss: Remove the paper towel from the bowl and pour the dressing over the broccoli. Toss the broccoli to coat well with the dressing.
